At first I was thinking about ordering a subscription box, but then I decided to order just a few flavors from a seller on Ebay. I have read candy blogs a few times over the year, and although I have no desire to try some of the strange flavors that are out there (no sour melon logs, or Sweet Heat Starburst for me), I wanted to document my first experience with Japanese candy.
They arrived yesterday, and I was pretty excited to try them. They were a little bit melty, no doubt from the humidity, so I put them in the freezer for a couple hours. I decided to try the Strawberry Cheesecake flavor first:
I had 1/2 of the little bar, and I let my husband have the other half. It was delicious!
The outside of the candy is white, with small pink flecks.The wafers inside are pink. I don't think it quite tastes like cheesecake, it's more like a strawberry dipped in white chocolate. It reminded me of these strawberry wafer cookies that my old babysitter used to keep in her cookie jar:
So these exotic candy bars are my new babies, and I will guard them like alternate-world-fat-Monica:
